Investigation of a double-degree-of-freedom wave energy converter

Layout and design optimization of ocean wave energy converters: A scoping review of state-of-the-art canonical, hybrid, cooperative, and combinatorial optimization methods

“…The first part contains rotational degrees, including roll, pitch, and yaw DOF, and the second contains translational degrees, including heave, sway, and surge. Fang et al (2020) investigated a doubledegree-of-freedom wave energy converter that can absorb higher energy than a single degree of freedom. The WECs can be classified based on the Degree of Freedom (DoF) they have.…”

Oscillating body wave energy conversion efficiency based on Simulink simulation training

“…7 In recent years, much literature has been reported on the optimization problem of WECs with several modifying algorithms. 8,9 Gomes et al 10 carried out the study on the floating oscillating water column (OWC), and twoheaving body model was formulated based on linear forces. Strati et al 11 also proposed a control strategy to maximize the performance of the OWC device in a variety of environmental conditions.…”

“…To better use the energy in ocean waves, wave‐energy converters (WECs) have been developed, which can be divided into mechanical transmission, low‐pressure hydraulic transmission, high‐pressure hydraulic transmission, and pneumatic transmission according to the way of energy conversion 7 . In recent years, much literature has been reported on the optimization problem of WECs with several modifying algorithms 8,9 . Gomes et al 10 carried out the study on the floating oscillating water column (OWC), and twoheaving body model was formulated based on linear forces.…”
